Patch to add Ed25519 support in SSHFP RRs

Attached patch adds support for Ed25519 keys (introduced in OpenSSH 6.5) for use in SSHFP DNS resource records.

Though not yet allocated by IANA, we provisionally assign an RR type value of four (4) for Ed25519 in anticipation of an update to the standards.
